DO YOU HAVE BACK PAIN and live in Sydney?

or you do not currently have any pain conditions?
We are looking for people to take part in a study to help us understand more about the process of recovery from back pain.
We need to recruit two groups:
(1) People with recent onset of back pain lasting less than 3 weeks
(2) People who do not currently have back pain
You will be asked to undertake three assessments (approximately 2 hours each) over 4 months at the Physiotherapy Research Lab in the Centre for Physical Health at Macquarie University in Sydney.
You will receive $30 for each assessment to compensate you for your travel and your time involved in participating.
If you are interested and to register please visit our website or contact Dr Julia Hush.

Lorimer is coming to York!

In this first course in the UK for several years, Lorimer will lead you through his 'highlights of pain' tour, visiting the conceptual underpinnings of modern pain rehabilitation, cutting edge pain-related cognitive and clinical neuroscience, critical pain-related thinking, clinical reasoning and treatment principles.

From Painful Yarns, to Explaining Pain Better, to Biologically Based Graded Exposure, the Cortical Body Matrix and the Imprecision Hypothesis, it will be intense, but it will also be scientifically sound, evidence based, clinically applicable and fun!
WHEN: 20 – 21 May 2015
WHERE: National Science Learning Centre, University of York
Reserve your place: joanna@noigroup.com, phone +44(0) 1904737919

Spasticity can lead to impairments in […]
